Anandtech takes Sprint's LTE network for a spin...

Same things we already know on S4GRU.

 

In practice, driving into Atlanta from the north along I-85, I found the coverage map to be a bit of a lie.

 

For now the overall performance of Sprint's LTE seems to be more in line with good HSPA+ on AT&T or below average for LTE compared to AT&T/Verizon.

I wish anand knew how many sites still needed to be upgraded in the market. I am sure the market will be a lot different once they actually upgrade 75+% of the "towers".

I found there to be little LTE coverage in Atlanta last week with speeds in the mid single digits. Not bad really considering less than 20% of the towers are complete.
